[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm an IB Oyster parent, and I think that it's great that we no longer have Deal as an option. [b]It forces Oyster's admins. and parents to improve whatever needs to be improved in the middle school.[/b] If some IB families don't find that appealing, they should move to a Deal feeder or private. Or better yet, don't move IB for Oyster at all.[/quote] Adams has been a fundamentally lazy place. My fear is that nothing will be improved to better serve advanced students, since Adams has lost its main public competitor. If more strong students stay rather than move on to privates, there will be some automatic benefit. But we'd need to see a willingness on Adams' part to offer an appropriate pace of instruction in all academic classes. Based on my family's experience, I'm not optimistic that Adams will demonstrate any interest in keeping in-bounds kids.[/quote]
